About Jenny
Jenny Cleary works from a person-centred foundation and combines practical talking methods with creative, nature-inspired ideas. She keeps a gentle but direct style and meets people at their own pace. Jenny aims to help people reconnect with what brings them joy and move past the beliefs that keep them stuck.
She has nine years of experience and holds the NCPS credential, which is shown here as provided. Her approach is flexible and adapted to each person.
Background and approach
Sessions focus first on identifying personal values and goals, so work stays relevant to everyday life. Jenny draws on several evidence-informed approaches, including acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT), attachment-based work and client-centred practice. She blends these methods to suit each person rather than following a single formula.
Her areas of focus include stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, trauma and abuse, addiction, self-esteem, grief and parenting-related stress. She also supports people facing career challenges, chronic health conditions, body image struggles and neurodiversity issues such as autism and Asperger syndrome. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted.

How Jenny works online
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person's goals and preferences. That may mean trying different techniques and checking in regularly to see what helps most.

Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, save travel time and allow appointments from different locations. It also supports brief check-ins, paced longer sessions or creative tasks you can do between meetings, depending on what is agreed with the counsellor.
